You’re Killin’ It & Here’s Why

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at New Haven chapter.

It’s so easy to forget to be happy and to just breathe throughout a stressful week, but you are accomplishing so much and maybe you don’t realize it now, but you definitely will in the future. But for now, here are a few reminders of why you’re killing the game and rockin’ it.

 

1. You’re alive

Every day is a blessing, and sometimes we forget that because of how busy our lives are. But sometimes it’s nice to just take a deep breath and appreciate the fact that we are alive, because life is short and we should cherish every day we have.

2. People love you

Always remember that there are always people in your life who love you! Life can get tough sometimes, but having family and friends around is always helpful and a great reminder that people care about you and want to see you succeed.

3.  You’re unique

There is no one else on this earth that is exactly like you. You are your own person, you have dreams, wishes, and goals and that makes you a special individual.

4. The future

The future may seem super scary since you never know what is going to happen, but that also means that amazing things could happen as well. Just think of all the things you have yet to experience in life! There are always tough times, but things get better with time, and the future is bright so look forward to it!

5. Your accomplishments

Look at what you’re doing with your life right at this moment. You’re in school, getting an education, working, achieving goals, and getting involved. You’ve come a long way, and you’ve still got awhile to go but look at what you’ve already accomplished. You should be proud of yourself, and motivated to keep going.

Jill Perniciaro is a Junior at the University of New Haven studying Criminal Justice. She is a Long Island gal at heart but is loving New England more and more every day. Even though her major is unrelated to writing/communications; the entertainment world of TV, movies, fashion, beauty and music is her side passion. Eating, watching movies, going to the gym, shopping, and bowling are also things she likes to do. Jill's fav animals are giraffes, monkeys, and otters. Her favorite color is purple, she loves the Weeknd with all her heart and she's most likely wearing her RayBan's cause she doesn't like to squint. She is a sister of Delta Phi Epsilon and she is hoping to pursue a career in Crime Scene Investigation. She is very happy to be a part of New Haven's HC chapter as secretary & a writer for the blog section :-) You can follow Jill on Twitter @jjillll (4 l's) and on Instagram @jillperniciaro.  HCXO
